I didn't want my coaxial cable getting in the way in the bed, or worse, being hit/cut by the troop seat legs. Also, I wanted to limit dirt, rain, and critters getting to the bed (as I planned to use the bed as a sad man's RV). So I decided to drill a hole below the antenna mount. I had only...

I am using it for CB. The link I provided in my first post to "ThoseMilitaryGuys" comes with a base (that bolts directly to the sugar scoop) and the antenna (that screws into the base) matched for use with CB. The base (and my Uniden Grant XL CB) uses the standard PL-259 connectors. No...

Cool. Welcome. But wait, you're telling me that you've somehow resisted not buying one of your own yet? :-P

I thought I traced my oil leak back to the speedometer cable adapter on the transfer case. At first I thought the speedometer cable end had just worked itself loose and all I needed to do was re-tighten it, but from what I've read here and the other thread linked earlier by gringeltaube, oil...

That's a good point, I will. Thanks! Best to change to wider spacers, shaped the correct size though.

You bring up a simple yet good point about the direction of the handles in relation to grabbing them, turning downward and then opening the door. I have the same or similar locking handles but now will consider your sound reasoning to moving them from their current vertical orientation to a...

It wasn't exactly easy to put on by myself though, especially with a hood out to "get you" on its mind!

It also doubles as a sun visor but I can't see it from the driver's seat (that doesn't mean though that it won't help keep sun outta the truck though). The hood lift from BBQROD was PERFECT, and IMO, absolutely necessary since the lightbar will not allow the hood to stay open without lashing...

Of course, I need to take a picture at night now too... ;)

Since this was designed for a HMMVW, and my cab is narrower, I swapped the brackets - passenger bracket on the driver's window frame, and the driver's bracket on the passenger window frame. However, that made it a little too wide so I had some aluminum blocks fabricated about the same size as...

I've had this 66" Ibis Tek lightbar for nearly 2 years (purchased from a member here, TedG). So last weekend I thought I should do something about it! I will say it really hurts to drill 1/2" holes in you truck's windshield frame (the lower holes I put in bolt sleeves, but just the 5/16" bolts...

Wow you guys, after these 4 years of ownership I never knew (or thought ) of it differently like that. I will do that. Wow.

I packed up all my gear for a near week long trip, with the deuce and my small dog. I had the whole passenger seat and floor filled up (so no air from the passenger side floor vent) and the passenger side window was only 1/2 way down. Though I did have the passenger front window tipped out...

Gee , it seems simple now, but at the time I couldn't figure out why there were 2 clip points. Yup, look'n good!

I probably know the least out of anyone here, so I'm just guessing and what I say is less than a grain of salt - but isn't the only electrical part needed to keep the engine running the fuel pump? Could that be why you lost power?

Oh, alright awesome. Thanks all. I wasn't sure if the "fixed" side was meant to clip to my truck or what (if so I imagined that at highway speeds the antenna could come out...) but different highway/offroad configurations is bonus features in the bag that I didn't know about. Thank you.

So I'm feeling rather dense at the moment, okay - more than usual. I'm mounting a CB antenna on my driver's bed side (with the antenna tied down toward the rear). And for the sake of ease, I bought an antenna kit. It came with the following antenna tie down: It was not immediately...
